    Wiley you are a tad bit gullible budd, you tend to go back and forth on alot of issues and if you read an article taht cuonters this one you might go back to the other side of the spectrum when it comes to RJJ. Personally most of these articles are just a way to discredit fighters and what they do in the ring, they aren't called critics for no reason.

      Hmm I seem to see many many people saying the opposite.. way too many for a general concenus..

      You do know what a "general" concensus is right??

        Please feel free to point out any FACTS that convinced you to change your opinion. The only FACT that I see regarding Jones and steroids is that he used them for one fight, which he admitted to thru his lawyer (via the article). Other than that, what facts are there that make you think his legacy is tainted. Please don't bother calling me a nuthugger because I'm not even a RJJ fan. I just don't feel the criticism is fair.

          He probably doesn't. Ask him if he knows what a general consensus is and he might. Probably not a good idea to misspell words while questioning someone's intelligence.

            ....all on roids. And more....
            Holyfield, Jones, Tony, Klitschscko, Vargas, Pazienza , Morrison and Mosley FOR SURE.

            I have not seen compelling evidence that indicates Lewis or Tyson did.


            I've been a hypocrite: I hold Mosley's steroids use against him....but am pretty forgiving of RJJ.

            You guys need to admit your own hypocrisies.

                It's beyond being "critical" when Jones has admitted through his lawyer that he used steriods, even if it regards one fight in 2000. That begs the question: What other fights was he using steroids for?

                A cheater is a cheater is a cheater.

                Before today, I'd never seen anything but rank speculation about Roy's use of steroids. Today, I've seen proof that he cheated.

                YES, my opinion of RJJ has been changed forever.
